Problem with the input of '€' (U+20AC EURO SIGN) with ~/.Xmodmap

My ~/.Xmodmap contains: keysym e = e NoSymbol EuroSign NoSymbol keysym c = c NoSymbol 0x010000a2 currency Using that, I can input '€' (U+020AC EURO SIGN), '¢' (U+00A2 CENT SIGN), and '¤' (U+00A4 CURRENCY SIGN) by typing the following key sequences: AltGr e 　　　　→ € AltGr c → ¢ Shift+AltGr c → ¤ That works fine in all applications *except* XEmacs. When I use that key sequence to type an € in XEmacs, the cursor advances but I don't see a glyph. When positioning the cursor on that character and checking with 'C-u C-x =' I get: €Char: € (U+20AC greek-iso8859-7 36) point=1032 of 1128(91%) column 0 i.e. the € has been input correctly, the problem is only that it is represented in the Greek character set, therefore a Greek font is used and that doesn't have the € character (X11 core fonts are used, not Xft). If I input the € by other means, for example - pasting from another application - using the input methods t-latn-pre or t-rfc1345 from scim-m17n I get Char: € (U+20AC latin-iso8859-15 36) point=1200 of 1660(72%) column 9 and the € is visible. Why is the Greek charset used when € is input via ~/.Xmodmap? When trying to input ¢ via ~/.Xmodmap, it is even worse, I only get the regular ASCII 'c' than. But ¢ can be input just fine by pasting from another application and by using an input method like scim-m17n. So why doesn't this work with ~/.Xmodmap? -- Mike FABIAN <mfabian(a)suse.de&gt; http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。 I � Unicode _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
